more backlogging and a sipdown!

Thanks again to nxtdoor for sending this my way. I am not a fan of green oolongs but this tea not only smells delicious but tastes wonderfully fruity and pretty good. I drank this yesterday both cold and hot and it’s got a nice smooth green oolong taste that blends nicely with the fruity acai/berry taste. it’s also not overly floral which is a plus for me. Over all not a bad little tea, though nothing i need to keep in my cupboard always. It was nice getting to try it though, and i did enjoy drinking it :)

backlog from a few days ago. This one is a little disappointing. I’d hoped for a creamier, sweeter sort of brew. I’m wondering if it’ll be better as a cold brew so i might try that out. Since this was from so long ago i’ll write a better review next time i try it.

backlog from a few days ago. I’m very nearly done this and i have to say i rather like it as a hot brewed, cooled tea. But i can’t get over the sludge factor. The stuff that’s left over in the basket after brewing this one is just ick….and tough to clean lol.

backlog -

sadly i forgot to take notes and the past couple of days have been insane. Mostly what i remember was enjoying this but i’m glad i have more to pay closer attention to. Thank you terri!

I’ve got some backlogging to do…yes i do! It’s been a busy couple of week. Had this one a couple of days ago and it’s still as delicious and wonderful. I love this version from Stacy and as long as she’ll keep making it, i’ll keep it in my cupboard :)

SOMEONE cavocorax pointed out that i was remiss because i hadn’t yet had tried Ruby pie as a cold brew. So i did. And i might just like it more than as a hot brew…maybe. Or maybe it’s just summer and i’m having a rough week and so this is delicious. I can’t wait for it to be morning though so i can bust out at least ONE of my new teas from terri!

and then tommorrow..it’ll be totally terri’s tea time! tada!

continuing my attempt to try and have at least one cup of 52 teas a day. I have had nothing to eat or drink all day…my work life is the suck at the moment. So now i’m home and i’m too tired to eat. But there’s tea and that’s what i’m drinking. I DID however get my tea box from terriharplady today which was about the only awesomely great thing in my day today. And while it means a significant increase to my cupboard size – it also means i have a bunch of mandala teas to try before i find a way to scrounge up some money for an order this month. :)

I cold brewed this tea and it’s a pretty good this way! it tastes like my memory of cuba libre from cuba, without tasting spot on. With a splash of sweetener it’s just a really nice cold tea.

this is also a tea that i had today – operation 52 teas! there’s a cold brew in my fridge that will have to wait until tomorrow. no sipdowns but that’s ok. i’m under 200…y? because the post office sucks. and my package that i have a notice for wasn’t there…grrrrrrrr so now i have to wait until tomorrow. which might as well be saturday all things considered.

this tea? minty white christmas-y goodness.

this tea makes me happy. this day does not. had this too long ago. i’m so glad it’s almost friday.

Another 52teas today! Operation 52 tea sipdown is in full force :) I don’t mind this one, but, as mentioned in other 52 teas notes – i don’t love it. It’s tasty but nothing i need to keep around as a staple (not that i can). i do like that this tastes like a rootbeer-ish type tea :) Not a bad start to the morning so far! though a bit weird in that i’ve started with flavoured teas :)
